an activist research about the current relations between womyn and technologies.

[[Bild:Lela.gif|50px|left]] DonesTech is an informal group created in June 2006 in Barcelona. It is composed of womyn and men that share some common background in relation to activist research, mediactivism, technological practice and gender/feminist perspective.

[[Bild:Lela.gif|50px|left]] In 2006, three technosocial researchers started an activist research about womyn that were already participating in technologies. We were asking about their access, use and wishes of technologies. It meant the beginning of the informal collective donestech and the metaproject Lela’s Code. Over time Lela’s Code has been developing through the web donestech.net, new research in visualization and mapping, workshops and training activities, participation and organization of meetings and presentations, and the production of audiovisual and animation projects.

Program

Metalab will host DonesTech, a female technology collective from Barcelona

Lela's Code: A cyberfeminist activist research project.

an activist research about the current relations between womyn and technologies.

In 2006, three technosocial researchers started an activist research about womyn that were already participating in technologies. We were asking about their access, use and wishes of technologies. It meant the beginning of the informal collective donestech and the metaproject Lela’s Code. Over time Lela’s Code has been developing through the web donestech.net, new research in visualization and mapping, workshops and training activities, participation and organization of meetings and presentations, and the production of audiovisual and animation projects.

Our talk will attempt to explain the case of donestech, focusing on its
motivations, processes and outcomes, as an example of Cyberfeminist activist
research. *Thus understood as a practice of generating critical knowledge
and creative action, technosocial and technoartistic, which seeks political,
social and gender transformation in a dynamic, fluid, multiple, performative
way with an intensive use and experimentation of ICT.

Music by: La Màquina de Turing

The dominant thread of the performance establishes in rich merges of electric music, voices and video performances and depicts the existence of a personal universe been built in mazes of visual metaphors, sound atmospheres and emotions. Live performances of La Màquina de Turing remind, therefore, of an audiovisual laboratory where curiosity and experimentation meet its purpose. The critical undertone is additionally covered with symbols and all type of poetry expressions.
